Malicious trolling and stalking

[Sprout]

Successful traders should have no reason to be shitty with the world, ok, maybe every now and again, but not ongoing.

I’d amend that by substituting should to would. Being shitty is as contagious as being kind. It just takes some practice in whichever one enjoys being.

The uninformed supply liquidity to the informed. The majority supplies profit opportunities to the minority.
That’s the nature of market’s.

It’s only an argument that the foolish would pursue when they are not braying.

States the dilettante. Try to repeat that aloud and not laugh.

Brays the ogre. Try to read any of the ad hominem attacks and try not to ignore.

Go on, have the last bitter word.

The irony. You don’t get that you ARE the mark/uninfomed. Perhaps you should stay.

Thank you for braying the point.

Happy trading to you !

JSOP, are you employed in the industry? Have you ever been?

Humble is an adjective not often applied to successful traders. Asshole, on the other hand...

Besides, how does calling out fake (Xela) or batshit crazy (Handle123) constitute being an asshole?

Yes I have been actually and trust me, I have seen successful traders and no, TRUE successful traders are never a**holes. Because what is the no. 1 requirement to be a successful trader? To be able to take emotion out of trading. Being cocky and putting your peers down through arrogance, being a**hole, that's having emotion. Once you put emotion into your trading, you won't be successful for long. True successful traders treat their trades as nothing but carefully planned transactions. Since they are just doing transactions, there is nothing to be cocky or to be a**holes about because you are only as good as your last trade.

Still waters run deep. This statement applies in every single profession including and especially financial trading.



That was Gotcha's statement, not mine. I was just responding to him.

They, the high volume bar is possible in FX futures simply on crossing a cash arb outside of the London/NY overlap. There is tremendous volume in cash when 6E is doing nothing in volume outside the overlap hours. There will also be scenarios after London closes that the 6E will be printing very little volume and then a cash arb will present a 6E volume spike with no movement in price.

Not the place for discussions on volume so I will leave it there.

No doubt on spot being the principal vs futures being the hedge for large money and which follows which.... With short term systems I mainly look at speed of volume and what it does to price. Doesn't really matter if it was arbitrage or initiative or responsive buying/selling.

I know nothing about options but I would imagine that when volatility comes in it just presents opportunities. I view speed of volume in a similar way - it creates opportunities.

Vendors aside, and for illustrative purposes, how many big name traders have publicly disclosed their trading strategies in full, replicable detail? (Not just for specific trades.)

Well, for illustrative purposes that would have to be Mark Brown.

You sound like Trump. What you tell is true and what others tell is fake. LOL.

What was the return on the funds you managed? Because all the rest is BS. That's maybe a question that might expose how "good" you were. You also never mentioned how much AUM you had from these funds. 1% of these 200MM?

Reminds me of the mouse and the elephant. They were running thru the desert and the mouse said: we make a lot of dust, don't we?
You were the mouse.
